Wahlburgers Closes Last Standalone Restaurant in Boston After Worldwide Closures
Key Points:
- Wahlburgers, the burger chain owned by Mark Wahlberg and his brothers, has closed nearly 80 locations since 2025, including its final standalone store in Fenway Park, Boston, marking a temporary exit from its home state.
- The Fenway location closed on October 31 due to lease expiration, with the company expressing gratitude to customers and announcing plans to find a new location in the Boston area.
- Despite these closures, Wahlburgers reported growth in 2026, adding 10 new outlets and expanding partnerships across hospitality, retail, and travel sectors.
- The chain plans to open new locations in 2027, including spots at the Oakland Athletics' future Las Vegas stadium, The Orleans Hotel & Casino, Bass Pro Shops in California and Colorado, Home Depot food stalls, and restaurants in Puerto Rico.
- Earlier in 2026, the original Wahlburgers location in Hingham, Massachusetts, also closed after nearly 15 years, with the company actively seeking new Boston-area locations following multiple closures in the region.
